If the gator went extinct ,it would take away the top predator in the everglades and would allow the prey animals numbers to explode to dangerous levels, throwing the ecosystem into chaos. But there are over a million gators in Florida, so the species is in no danger.

∙ 6y agoIf crocodiles went extinct the food they presently eat would be used by whatever animal they presently compete with for that food. This would cause a growth in the population of that species until it exceeded the food supply. It would then die off until it was in balance.At the end of the process the ecology would strike a new balance
